First, item banking operations, which are generally based on item Response Theory but not necessarily restricted to dichotomously scored items, facilitate assessment task organization and require technological support. Second, technology may help to design more authentic assessment tasks or may be needed in some direct testing situations. Third, the assessment environment may be more adapted and more stimulating when technology is used to give the student more control. The second part of the paper presents different functions of assessment. The monitoring function (often called formative assessment) aims at adapting the classroom activities to students and to provide continuous feedback. Technology may be used to train the teachers in monitoring techniques, to organize data or to produce diagnostic information; electronic portfolios or quizzes that are built in some educational software may also be used for monitoring. The placement function is probably the one in which the application of computer adaptive testing procedures (e.g. French CAPT) is the most appropriate. Automatic scoring devices may also be used for placement purposes. Finally the certification function requires more valid and more reliable tools. Technology may be used to enhance the testing situation (to make it more authentic) or to facilitate data processing during the construction of a test. Almond et al. (2002) propose a four component model (Selection, Presentation, Scoring and Response) for designing assessment systems. Each component must be planned taking into account the assessment function. 10aAdaptive Testing10aComputer Assisted Instruction10aEducational10aForeign Language Learning10aProgram Evaluation10aTechnology computerized adaptive testing1 aLaurier, M  uhttp://iacat.org/content/%C3%A9valuation-et-multim%C3%A9dia-dans-lapprentissage-dune-l2-assessment-and-multimedia-learning-l201223nas a2200193   4500008004100000245002900041210002900070260003200099300001200131520066800143653003000811653003200841653001400873653004500887100001200932700001500944700001600959856005400975       2003                        eng d00aAssessing question banks0 aAssessing question banks  aLondon, UKbKogan Page Ltd.  a171-2303 aIn Chapter 14, Joanna Bull and James Daziel provide a comprehensive treatment of the issues surrounding the use of Question Banks and Computer Assisted Assessment, and provide a number of excellent examples of implementations. In their review of the technologies employed in Computer Assisted Assessment the authors include Computer Adaptive Testing and data generation. The authors reveal significant issues involving the impact of Intellectual Property rights and computer assisted assessment and make important suggestions for strategies to overcome these obstacles.
